Examples

The following code example shows the use of this attribute in a Visual Basic project.

' Form overrides Dispose to clean up the component list.
<System.Diagnostics.DebuggerNonUserCode()> _
Protected Overloads Overrides Sub Dispose(ByVal disposing As Boolean)
If disposing AndAlso components IsNot Nothing Then
components.Dispose()
End If
MyBase.Dispose(disposing)
End Sub

Remarks

Designer provided types and members that are not part of the code specifically created by the user can complicate the debugging experience. This attribute suppresses the display of these adjunct types and members in the debugger window and automatically steps through, rather than into, designer provided code. When the debugger encounters this attribute when stepping through user code, the user experience is to not see the designer provided code and to step to the next user-supplied code statement.

Note

The common language runtime attaches no semantics to this attribute. It is provided for use by source code debuggers. For example, in Visual Studio 2005, the debugger does not display an element with this attribute in the debugger window, does not stop in a method with this attribute, and does not allow a breakpoint to be set in the method.
